I have made prayer shawls out of fleece. The fleece is wide enough that I could fold it into a square and then cut it diagonally so that it made a triangle. I then used my June Taylor strip ruler to make fringe. I attach a card with appropriate verses from the Bible or appropriate words of wisdom from other sources. These may not be as "elegant" as you want, but they are warm and the people who have received them have seemed to appreciate them. froggyintexas
